Pledging allegiance to Jesus means choosing His path of love and never ever a path of hatred. Preacher: Fr. Ciaran O’Callaghan CSsR #ChristTheKing | Clonard Monastery | Facebook

Jesus came when the world was tired. Not to escape our reality, but to step into it... His birth reminds us that God meets us exactly where we are ; in our doubts, our waiting, our unfinished stories. Christmas is not about having it all together. It’s about God choosing to be with us anyway. May you experience the nearness of Jesus this Christmas. Merry Christmas from Divine Retreat Center, Pantasaph. #Christmas #jesuschrist #catholicchurch #merrychristmas Denny Mandapathil | Pantasaph Vincenti
